Originally posted by Klinerr1 umm allegro is a grpahics library for c++ unless they changed that within the last 5 days. it might be a C one also.

did you ever, ever, EVER stop to think before you said something? allegro is and always has been a well written portable graphics library, in C with asm here and there. not C++. the fact that you can #include its headers and use it in C++ has nothing to do what it's actually written in; it also can be called in a few other languages as well if i'm not mistaken.

Ya'll know of any 5 yera old shere to set it up for me? wait i think i just insulted myself. oh well. i set it up. but thats not the same page i saw before on the allegro site.

let's say that in terms of distance by links, martha stewart's home page can be considered to be about 1000 miles from goatse (a very repugnant anal webpage if you don't know what it is). this is a representation of about how many different web pages you would have to go through if you wanted to get from martha stewart to goatse only by clicking links on pages you visit. using this representation, the aforementioned page is about 10 feet from the allegro home page.
